CURRENT MISSION

to update my profile!

ABOUT ME

Easy going guy, curious and open minded. I love listening to stories, and spending time with friendly people in front of a good glass of BEER :) The best way to live to me is the "EXPLORING mode", both physically and menthally, although i've not always enough time to do it (sigh) due to my job. I like open activities (sport, walking..) as much as reading, studying, or KompoZing some music.

PHILOSOPHY

My main philosophy is to continuously improve myself for becoming a good man. I think that knowledge and hard work are the key to fully live a life. I generally prefer difficult roads to easy ones, it's my motivational source.Life is a gift, and I need to do the best i can to fully understand, live and enjoy it, in harmony with the others.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: In my life I learned to listen to all kinds of music, from metal to jazz, from classic to electronic. Often I need to listen to dreaming music like Coldplay (especially when i'm travelling), but also musics that gives me energy, like Prodigy or Chemical Brothers. Some of my favourite groups/musicians are: Yes,Guns&Roses, Metallica, ChickCorea, Bach, Sting, DeepPurple, AcDc, RedHot, BillEvans..
Books: I prefer philosophy books and introspective ones in general (love Platon).But sometimes i need to read something relaxing, expecially on holidays.
Movies: I don't like Seven Samurai (once I fell asleep after 5 minutes :D), I like comedy very much (recent example: Harold & Kumar escape from Guantanamo Bay), but often I like to watch to love stories (recent example: Dan in real life). Movies I love are: Tarantino's, Apollo13, Beautiful mind, Rocky (fuck yeah!), musts like BacktoTheFuture..
